Glaucoma treatment in Nomadoc
About the clinic
Glaucoma treatment at Nomadoc in Mazapil, Mexico, provides specialized care for managing intraocular pressure to protect the optic nerve. The clinic network is accredited by ISAPS and connects patients with English-speaking specialists who focus on both surgical and laser interventions. Treatment plans are based on precise monitoring through advanced tools like optical coherence tomography (OCT) and tonometry.
Expert Glaucoma Specialists
The medical team includes highly trained ophthalmologists with deep experience in glaucoma management. Dr. José Antonio Pérez Jiménez holds over 5 years of experience and a sub-specialization in glaucoma from UNAM. Dr. Pérez Jiménez is an active member of the European Glaucoma Society and the Mexican Glaucoma Collegue. Dra. Karen Janeth Arriozola Rodríguez, also with over 5 years of experience, specialized at the Conde de Valenciana Ophthalmology Institute. Dra. Giselle Bernal Martínez performed her advanced specialty training at the Instituto Nacional de Rehabilitación and is certified by the Mexican Council of Ophthalmology.
Advanced Diagnostic Tools
Success in treating this progressive eye disease depends on accurate data. Specialists at Nomadoc use several methods to track the health of your eyes:
- Tonometry to measure the pressure inside the eye.
- Visual field testing to check for any loss in peripheral vision.
- Optical coherence tomography (OCT) to get high-resolution images of the optic nerve.
Surgical and Laser Options
When eye drops are not enough, the specialists offer various procedures to lower eye pressure. Dra. Karen Janeth Arriozola Rodríguez performs minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS), which helps patients recover faster. Dra. Giselle Bernal Martínez is experienced in traditional trabeculectomy and the placement of glaucoma drainage valves. Patients can also receive laser treatments, such as selective laser trabeculoplasty, to help fluid drain better from the eye.
Pre-operative and Aftercare
Before any procedure, patients undergo a full eye exam. This includes checking visual acuity, refraction, and the fundus. After surgery, the doctors schedule follow-up visits to monitor healing and track eye pressure levels. This steady monitoring helps prevent further vision loss from the disease.
